    Cool, still waiting for them to fix the excessive startup delay that’s been there for months, and wasnt there before the latest update.

    And it still doesnt work with blu-rays, irregardless of how many addons and libraries I jam into it.

    Free doesnt always mean better.

      The slow startup is an issue with windows . not vlcs fault.
